[mod_python] cannot get mod-python to work !

The problem probably is that you have no directive to say that a URL of 
/contrado
maps to the physical directory of /contrado. If you don't have one, it 
will look
for the directory under the document root of /var/www and thus why it 
is expecting
to find /var/www/contrado.

In addition to the <Directory> directive, specify:

   Alias /contrado /contrado
